required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such

as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled

or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been

exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has

been dropped.

n Battery usage CAUTION – To prevent battery leakage which may

result in bodily injury, property damage, or damage to the unit,the

batteries (battery pack or batteries installed) shall not be exposed

to excessive heat such as sunshine, re or the like.

o Apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing.

Hearing safety

Listen at a moderate volume.

Using headphones at a high volume can impair your hearing. This •

product can produce sounds in decibel ranges that may cause hearing

loss for a normal person, even for exposure less than a minute. The

higher decibel ranges are offered for those that may have already

experienced some hearing loss.

Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing ‘comfort level’ •

adapts to higher volumes of sound. So after prolonged listening, what

sounds ‘normal’ can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. To

guard against this, set your volume to a safe level before your hearing

adapts and leave it there.

To establish a safe volume level:

Set your volume control at a low setting. •

Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and •

clearly, without distortion.

English

DS8550_93_UM_V1.0.indb 5 2010-10-15 10:41:58

Listen for reasonable periods of time:

Prolonged exposure to sound, even at normally ‘safe’ levels, can also •

cause hearing loss.

Be sure to use your equipment reasonably and take appropriate •

breaks.

Be sure to observe the following guidelines when using your

headphones.

Listen at reasonable volumes for reasonable periods of time.•

Be careful not to adjust the volume as your hearing adapts.•

Do not turn up the volume so high that you can’t hear what’s around •

you.

You should use caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially •

hazardous situations. Do not use headphones while operating a

motorizedvehicle,cycling,skateboarding,etc.;itmaycreateatrafc

hazard and is illegal in many areas.

Warning

Never remove the casing of this apparatus. •

Never lubricate any part of this apparatus. •

Never place this apparatus on other electrical equipment. •

Keepthisapparatusawayfromdirectsunlight,nakedamesorheat. •
